Constructors
constructor
- Type parameters- T: object
 - Parameters- em: MongoEntityManager<MongoDriver>
- entityName: EntityName<T>
 - Returns MongoEntityRepository<T>
Methods
aggregate
- Parameters- pipeline: any[]
 - Returns Promise<any[]>
assign
- Shortcut for - wrap(entity).assign(data, { em })- Type parameters- Ent: object | { [___loadedType]?: T } | { [___selectedType]?: T }
- Naked: object | { [___loadedType]?: T } | { [___selectedType]?: T } = FromEntityType<Ent>
- Convert: boolean = false
- Data: EntityData<Naked, Convert> | Partial<EntityDTO<Naked>> = EntityData<Naked, Convert> | Partial<EntityDTO<Naked>>
 - Parameters- entity: Ent | Partial<Ent>
- data: Data & IsSubset<EntityData<Naked, Convert>, Data>
- optionaloptions: AssignOptions<Convert>
 - Returns MergeSelected<Ent, Naked, keyof Data & string>
canPopulate
- Checks whether given property can be populated on the entity. - Parameters- property: string
 - Returns boolean
count
- Returns total number of entities matching your - wherequery.- Type parameters- Hint: string = never
 - Parameters- where: FilterQuery<T> = ...
- options: CountOptions<T, Hint> = {}
 - Returns Promise<number>
create
- Creates new instance of given entity and populates it with given data. The entity constructor will be used unless you provide - { managed: true }in the- optionsparameter. The constructor will be given parameters based on the defined constructor of the entity. If the constructor parameter matches a property name, its value will be extracted from- data. If no matching property exists, the whole- dataparameter will be passed. This means we can also define- constructor(data: Partial<Entity>)and- em.create()will pass the data into it (unless we have a property named- datatoo).- Type parameters- Convert: boolean = false
 - Parameters- data: RequiredEntityData<T, never, Convert>
- optionaloptions: CreateOptions<Convert>

 - Returns Promise<Loaded<T, Hint, Fields, Excludes>[]>
findAndCount

Explicit- orderByoption is required.- Use - firstand- afterfor forward pagination, or- lastand- beforefor backward pagination.- firstand- lastare numbers and serve as an alternative to- offset, those options are mutually exclusive, use only one at a time
- beforeand- afterspecify the previous cursor value, it can be one of the:- Cursorinstance
- opaque string provided by startCursor/endCursorproperties
- POJO/entity instance
 
 - const currentCursor = await em.findByCursor(User, {}, {
 first: 10,
 after: previousCursor, // cursor instance
 orderBy: { id: 'desc' },
 });
 // to fetch next page
 const nextCursor = await em.findByCursor(User, {}, {
 first: 10,
 after: currentCursor.endCursor, // opaque string
 orderBy: { id: 'desc' },
 });
 // to fetch next page
 const nextCursor2 = await em.findByCursor(User, {}, {
 first: 10,
 after: { id: lastSeenId }, // entity-like POJO
 orderBy: { id: 'desc' },
 });- The - Cursorobject provides the following interface:- Cursor<User> {
 items: [
 User { ... },

 User { ... },
 ],
 totalCount: 50,
 startCursor: 'WzRd',
 endCursor: 'WzZd',

upsert
- Creates or updates the entity, based on whether it is already present in the database. This method performs an - insert on conflict mergequery ensuring the database is in sync, returning a managed entity instance. The method accepts either- entityNametogether with the entity- data, or just entity instance.- // insert into "author" ("age", "email") values (33, 'foo@bar.com') on conflict ("email") do update set "age" = 41
 const author = await em.getRepository(Author).upsert({ email: 'foo@bar.com', age: 33 });- The entity data needs to contain either the primary key, or any other unique property. Let's consider the following example, where - Author.emailis a unique property:- // insert into "author" ("age", "email") values (33, 'foo@bar.com') on conflict ("email") do update set "age" = 41
 // select "id" from "author" where "email" = 'foo@bar.com'
 const author = await em.getRepository(Author).upsert({ email: 'foo@bar.com', age: 33 });- Depending on the driver support, this will either use a returning query, or a separate select query, to fetch the primary key if it's missing from the - data.- If the entity is already present in current context, there won't be any queries - instead, the entity data will be assigned and an explicit - flushwill be required for those changes to be persisted.- Parameters- optionalentityOrData: T | EntityData<T>
- optionaloptions: UpsertOptions<T>
 - Returns Promise<T>
upsertMany
- Creates or updates the entity, based on whether it is already present in the database. This method performs an - insert on conflict mergequery ensuring the database is in sync, returning a managed entity instance.- // insert into "author" ("age", "email") values (33, 'foo@bar.com') on conflict ("email") do update set "age" = 41
 const authors = await em.getRepository(Author).upsertMany([{ email: 'foo@bar.com', age: 33 }, ...]);- The entity data needs to contain either the primary key, or any other unique property. Let's consider the following example, where - Author.emailis a unique property:- // insert into "author" ("age", "email") values (33, 'foo@bar.com'), (666, 'lol@lol.lol') on conflict ("email") do update set "age" = excluded."age"
 // select "id" from "author" where "email" = 'foo@bar.com'
 const author = await em.getRepository(Author).upsertMany([
 { email: 'foo@bar.com', age: 33 },
 { email: 'lol@lol.lol', age: 666 },
 ]);- Depending on the driver support, this will either use a returning query, or a separate select query, to fetch the primary key if it's missing from the - data.- If the entity is already present in current context, there won't be any queries - instead, the entity data will be assigned and an explicit - flushwill be required for those changes to be persisted.- Parameters- optionalentitiesOrData: EntityData<T>[] | T[]
- optionaloptions: UpsertManyOptions<T>
 - Returns Promise<T[]>
